The mode may optionally be followed by `{\bf,keep}' to cause Xen to keep
writing to the VGA console after domain 0 starts booting (e.g., `vga=text-80x50,keep').
+\item [ no-real-mode ] (x86 only) Do not execute real-mode bootstrap
+ code when booting Xen. This option should not be used except for
+ debugging. It will effectively disable the {\bf vga} option, which
+ relies on real mode to set the video mode.
+\item [ edid=no,force ] (x86 only) Either force retrieval of monitor
+ EDID information via VESA DDC, or disable it (edid=no). This option
+ should not normally be required except for debugging purposes.
\item [ console\_to\_ring ] Place guest console output into the
hypervisor console ring buffer. This is disabled by default.
When enabled, both hypervisor output and guest console output
